Mark,

Another great story. And an interesting dilemma about a) how to be sure
divers really are in trouble; and, b) how to get them to shore. I have
noticed that they seem to be carrying a lot more than they did when Sue and
I were doing the sport in Puget Sound. I think the next step is a personal
submarine. They should have been able to inflate their buoyancy vests and
just lay around in the water 'til they had some strength back. Seems easier
to me than crawling through the surf only to spend time on your hands and
knees.

I've been so tired I couldn't move, myself, however. It was after an
especially taxing rolling session. In a pool, no less.

Would you explain the Frankenstein paddle? Is it a GP?

Anyway, sounds like two great adventures in one day. All I did was ride a
bike. :P

Craig :)
